OMG, we're sharing a brain! That was MY decision too. Plus the Salvation Army is right there at this time helping the victims NOW, while Catholic Charities' mission seems to be helping the victims a little later on, like in a month or so.
When the media pulls out in a few weeks, it's not like everyone's lives will suddenly be back to normal. They'll still need help and can then turn to organizations like Catholic Charities.
